Vacay Verde- A Cozy Beach Cottage

Cottage is within walking distance to all that South Haven has to offer.

This clean well kept cottage is located in the heart of South Haven, a unique lakeshore town, that offers unlimited recreational activities. Whether you are planning a weekend getaway to visit the various wineries and orchards, or kayak the Black River, or stroll the beach, or ride the Kal Haven trail, you will be in close proximity to all these destinations. Also you will have your choice of restaurants on the waterfront and unique shops that are just a short walk or bike ride away. A splash pad was just constructed at South Beach which is providing fun in the sun to many young children and their families at no cost.

Inside the cottage you will find an open layout for friends and/or families to gather, play games, watch movies or simply relax . Outside you will find a "coffee porch" that is perfect to catch the early morning sun. There is also a private backyard to enjoy and is equipped with a gas grill and fire pit. A backyard shed holds many items such as bikes, wagons, beach toys, cooler, and much more for your use when you stay. Come rest, relax and retreat from the busyness of life as well as make memories to last a lifetime.

A great place with great hosts!
We stayed here for a week over Christmas 2023. TL/DR: Yes, yes, YES we would stay here again! Full review: This is a great property in a convenient and safe location in South Haven, about a mile from the beach. Positives: • Super-responsive hosts • Clean, comfortable 3 BR, 1.5 BA • Beds/bedding were of great quality; good sleep • Kitchen had newer appliances and was well-stocked for a short-term stay • Furnace and fire-stove heated the house quickly • Washer and Dryer with supplied laundry detergent • Great TV/Internet package • Yard and shed have just about everything you need for summer fun; bikes, beach equipment, gas grill, etc. • Driveway is long enough for parking multiple vehicles Improvements that could be made (not negatives, just things we feel could be improved over time) • Only one TV (LR); yes, people don’t come to SH for the TV, but in a house with up to seven people in it, one TV will be inadequate (easy fix) • No dressers; a week living out of a suitcase is less than ideal (easy fix) • Sleeps 7 but dining for only 3-5; without more chairs, a large group dinner would be very challenging (easy fix) • Driveway approach is incredibly steep at the street and driveway is not paved; might be a challenge for those with difficulty in walking on uneven ground If we find that we have to stay in a rental next year, there is no question that we would consider Vacay Verde again. For the price of not much more than a hotel room for the week, we had all this.

End of summer getaway
We had a great time in South Haven. This property is only a mile from the downtown area and the beach. The house was super cute and had all the amenities needed for beach trip. We had easy communication with the owners and would stay here again!

M and M Beach Getaway
Great location. all was mostly good at cottage. We wanted to use the bikes, but could not find a wrench to lower seats. Also, the beach "chairs" were too heavy to carry on foot so we drove to beach one day, but didn't use these pieces the rest of our stay. Love South Haven!

Lovely home away from home
Clean and well maintained. Access to a washing machine and dryer was nice to have. Delicious food nearby. Quick drive to the beach. Would be walkable if we didn’t have kids and a ton of stuff ;). Access to a wagon was perfect for lugging our stuff from the car to the shoreline. Would recommend!

This property is not ADA compliant-several trip points,bathtub too high and stairs too steep- not good for older people either (l’m 74). Other than that we enjoyed the cottage. It was within walking distance of several things to do -about a mile. It was clean and even though I slept on the couch ( stairs to upstairs bedrooms too risky) I was comfortable. We enjoyed the s’mores fixings also. Thank you for an enjoyable first trip to Michigan.
